This is important to talk about.
I’d like there to be some new laws put in place:
- When diagnosing Autistic spectrum disorders and ADHD, ensure they have looked into the patients childhood records, genetics, family, before diagnosing personality disorders. Autism and ADHD exists from birth and doesn’t suddenly develop later in life. Also 47% of Autistic people will be diagnosed with bipolar disorder and you are 10x more likely to have bipolar disorder if you have CPTSD.
- Right to choose in Scotland for MH treatments, including physical health combined with mental health and psychiatrists in GP surgeries.
- Make it illegal to turn people away with personality disorders/ identify the individual by a label. Separate the person from the mental health condition.
4. Neurodivergence training to be introduced to all mental health sectors due to the high correlation rates between ADHD and criminal activity. This is prevention. This is how you make change.
